At the beginning of last month, John and I had a scrapbook show in Seattle and we stayed a couple of extra days with my best friend Amy and her family. While we were there, we made a trip up to Canada. It was fun, but it WAS little disappointing to leave the country and still feel like you were in the USA. It didn't help that everyone spoke English I guess... At any rate, we drove around a lot, saw some of the Winter 2010 Olympic sites and went to an island that had totem poles (I forget what the name of the island was), and the new temple site in Vancouver.
The future Vancouver Temple. It is closer for Amy's sister Deena to leave the country to go to the temple because she lives only a few miles from the US border. CRAZY.
Floating logs down the river. Not being from Alaska or anything, I've never seen this in person. It was an cool sight while passing over the bridge.
My best friend Amy (other than my husband that is!) I have so much fun when we get together. I'm grateful that our friendship has remained so strong over the years!
It was rainy and dreary. A little goofiness to liven me up :)
I've never seen anything like this, but then again, I don't live close to any major ports for boats or anything. This Chevron was in the MIDDLE of the river!
